around the corner I thought it was the perfect time to try out the pattern.

The pattern doesn't specify what yarn to use. Whatever you do, don't use worsted weight yarn. You'll end up with a big heavy heart the size of a small pillow. Not a good idea. I should know. I tried it. It's best to use a finer yarn. I ended up using baby yarn on the ones I made.

I like these to hang on a doorknob or a hook somewhere around the house. These could also be scented to make them even more special.

I really enjoyed making them and will most likely end up making a few more.

Hope you'll give them a try sometime.

Not a whole lot of sunshine around here. It's been terribly cold the last few days. It's been snowing on and off for the past week. Yesterday there was a thick fog that hung around all day and the frost on the trees is building up pretty good. I think old man winter wants us to know that he's still around.

While I don't like the cold, I am enjoying the scenery of frosted covered trees.

Hello! I am so happy to have stumbled upon your blog. I saw your photo of hanging hearts on Lacy Crochet's blog, and they caught my eye, as I have made oodles of those darling hanging puffed hearts too. I love them! I scrolled back several pages to view your lovely crochet creations! I am your newest follower!xo Kris
